[Q] galaxy s sent to samsung repair, will it be fixed?

i was trying to install cm7 after seeing it everywhere,i was on gingerbread. tried to install it it didn't work just went to recovery screen every time, then i read i had to be using froyo so i downgraded to froyo , successfully downgraded, i noticed i didnt have recovery nor download, so i installed rom manager so i can install recovery, didnt work so installed cm7 from the app, phone powered on then vibrated,went to random repair shop(Somalian) they said he can fix it, then he said i damaged the boot sector so he said he can do it, left it to him, couldnt do it, after he tried fixing it, phone didn't power on (worse) he did say samsung will fix it because he repaired the boot sector and they will fix it. phone was rooted with froyo software.
WILL SAMSUNG FIX THIS ISSUE, TOLD THEM IT WAS AN ISSUE AFTER UPDATING THROUGH THE KIES SOFTWARE . HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS ISSUE
(IN THE UK) URGENT SENT IT TO THEM WAITING FOR IT

I think, therefore fail to understand, that might even fix it yourself. Could enter download mode?

You should have bought the USB jig to force boot into download mode. Less hassle.
Nevertheless Samsung will fix it for you.

no download mode
i wasn't able to go into download mode i tried many things, i thought of getting the jig but its for semi bricked i think mine was fully bricked.
you said they will fix it, have you tried it before and how do you know (no offence)

Hi,
Yes samsung will fix it, i did it once !
It's when i tried to flash my first ROM, i used ODIN and during the flashing, it failed, and i did not have the 3-button-combo to go back into download mode...
Result : Phone bricked...
I sent it back to samsung saying that my computer turned off during an upgrade using Samsung Kies.
They gave it back to me after 2 weeks!

if you're newly flashing the CM7, then after the installation, it goes bootloop then go to recovery, over and over. remove the battery, then go to recovery(volume up+homebutton+powerkey) then flash it again. try that.

That it can be repaired there is no doubt because it is a software problem and not hardware. I've seen in forums that if you can not enter the download mode, you can force hardware, you put a resistor in the USB cable, but in the end for a normal user is a bit complicated, my advice would carry it to the Service Center. And the price can be from free to relatively inexpensive because it does not have to replace any parts.

phone is back
they fixed the phone free of charge and the bonus is my phone was 8gb now is 16gb for some reason
thanks for the replies

Then they didn't bother fixing it and just sent you another handset...
[CONSPIRACYMODE] Or Samasung only made 16gb versions and crippled some to only 8gb... [/CONSPIRACYMODE]

Some people have all the luck. Glad for you whizibos your small mishap had fringe benefits.

so my brother brought me his semi bricked n7000 "btw i searched and googled"

so my brother brought me his semi bricked n7000 "btw i searched and googled"
well, yesterday my brother brought me his cellphone which doesn't boot anymore, he wanned to install a custom rom since he saw that i have a fast one (galaxy s I)
so when i asked him what he did , he said he followed all the steps in rootgalaxynoteDOTcom/galaxy-note-roms/kingdroid-ics-rom-v3-0-for-galaxy-note-gt-n7000-best-ics-romtouchwiz-ux/[/url]
but then, his phone didn't boot, so he wiped - reset factory setting, which i read is a BIG NO when you're flashing ICS.
so whats done is done, i am trying to get it back , i can boot in recovery mode/download mode ... i tried out many kernels like AbyssNotekernel42RedTouchCustomLogo or speedmod, and downloaded at least 4 or 5 GB stock roms.
sadly , if odin flash is successful, it stuck on (samsung galaxy note gt-n7000) black srcreen, reboots few times then stays still...
if the odin flash wasn't successful , it keeps stuck on data.img and never goes beyond that .
i did all the steps i could find, wiped data after installed stock GB rom and rebooted, nothing worked
i even used rogue_ET-recoveryonly , and i think it went along format all the way, but still nothing happened after that.
the only thing i haven't tried yet was the repartition + pit file, i couldn't find the PIT , most of the roms have pda/modem/csc ... so if anyone can help out, i would really appreciate it ..
thanks

First thing you should do is check other threads about that around here.
If you can get it into download mode, you could give flashing with Odin a try. If it doesn't get stuck at factory.fs, then you're not superbricked.
If it does get stuck, then you have 2 more hopes:
- HOPE 1
- HOPE 2
If those don't work either...I'm afraid it's off to the Samsung Service center for a shiny new motherboard.
Best of luck to you and hope you get your Note up and running as soon as possible...

thanks, no it doesn't get stuck at factoryfs at all , i did check out most of the threads here, and most of them say "go back to GB with odin and if its stuck on samsung gt-n7000 boot screen just go back with recovery mode and then wipe data / cache " but never worked, so i thought i should ask around here
i'll check out the threads you posted and see what i can come up with

weird, i used the 16gb pit - repartition (check)
and i flashed it with SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS through odin.
and its still the same, the flashing with odin was successful and everything went fine, no hanging , no delays or what so ever. after it restarts its stuck on the black samsung galaxy note gt-n7000 screen
im gonna wipe data / cache again but i doubt that would fix anything.
so any idea what could be wrong? specially when the flashing process went fine?
i've already tried like 4 stock roms ,
arabic uae , europe , saudia and the SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS
i wonder if i need to put something in boot space in odin "just a thought"
ive tried downloading roms from here [STOCK ROMS] N7000 All stock ROMs + install + Root guide All at 1place,Latest ICS LQ3
and here [STOCK ODEX PRE ROOTED ROMs] for Odin PC no counter & triangle
any ideas?

For OP:
If you are not stucking while flashing from PC Odin then you are not superbricked.
I think you got corrupted /system or other partition; I saw another thread where OP was getting this sort of hang due to filesystem corruption which can't mount.
Entropy512 gave simple dd command based solution for erasing initial 1MB of partition.
Try searching for corrupted filesystem/partition related information. I can't recall exact thread title, sorry.
I hope this will help.

Should try to install/reinstall samsung usb driver package. or try reinstall Kies also provide drivers for Note.
If driver is install properly: when connect with PC using usb cable it need to be shown under hardware management as something like "android composite adb interface" or something like that.

Also are you trying to connect adb after booting the phone ? Means in a stuck state ? I think you can try enabling ADB thing from CWM rather than trying to boot phone fully.

hmm i can't find an option in CWM that suggests that , still searching
also im trying to find roms that i can install from CWM , are there any GB roms that can be directly installed from CWM ?
thanks.

Hi: I understand he means boot the phone into CWM and then connect to PC in that environment. adb need to be run from PC while the phone is booted into CWM recovery.
Still, most of the custom roms are in the .zip format and can be install using CWM. they just now become a bit more difficult to find since dev move on to ICS/CM9 roms. Still try to find some GB roms in the forum such as: rocket GB, litening GB, xtralite GB....
This is the link for Rocket rom GB. Better try v22 than v23.

Yes, recovery mode is in CWM. (in case you have not done it: Enter recovery by,from phone power off: pressing volumeup + home + power and release power when see samsung letter while still hole the other two buttons.)

hmm. that should be still the problem with usb driver. Have you checked under hardware management if it show the device as "samsung composite adb interface" yet?
kernel should not be the problem with connecting adb. It is the problem with usb driver for Note. Sometime Win7 have problem with driver. You may want to search for another package of samsung usb driver on the web.
I did put some links of GB roms in the post in the previous page. maybe try them first if any luck.
Also try to restart computer to see if the driver issues get solved.
Got to go. Hope that you can solve the problem. GL.

thanks, i restarted my pc , reinstalled kies, and now it shows under device manager
now i connect to the phone through adb , i appreciate you pointing it out
which method you think i should go for 1st? this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26285877&postcount=12
or unzipping a rom and then pushing it all through adb?
i think i'll go for removing and repartitioning manually, hopefully it'll work
thanks again guys , i'll post the updates here,
lol, my brother called me and he's like "if u can't fix it by the end of the night, fk it, dont bother yourself with it" but to be honest, im too stubborn, i hope i can fix it

looks like deleting and adding partitions back through parted kinda work, for the first time i was able to pass the boot screen after i installed rocketrom from CWM
however, its been 1/2 hour since im stuck on rocketrom loading screen it keeps looping and looping.. i wonder if i should wait more.. or should i try another rom?

finally got rid of the verification -.- was kinda annoying thats why i didn't bother editing posts,
anyways, rocketrom didn't work, so i decided to flash a stock rom instead , the flash through odin went fine, it was great to be able to wipe data without getting stuck , however, it keeps going though samsung animation over and over, i think im gonna leave it like this one the charger till morning, i wonder if it'll be the same
guess i have to google for "samsung loop" , i wonder why this keeps happening though -.-

-.- leaving it for 6 hours on samsung logo animation didn't do the trick , still looping when i woke up, so i guess i'll do some more search on why this is happening.

You have checked partitions and see no error that means the problem lies somewhere else, not partitions. I have no idea yet, but for me I would try some different roms. Small roms have more chance to work, that is the feedback I got from some people:
- try check rom in the link I sent
- try paranoid android which is CM9, or asylum
- extralite
cheers.

thanks buddy, i appreciate your help, the partition "USED" to give me error when i did the check 9 10 11 , but after removing the partition and reformatting them (and i also removed the cache partition) now its working fine "i suppose" i didn't do another check, but i might will now that you mention it.
i already tried rocket rom, didn't work, stock rom didn't work, so i'll give the others a try at least it doesn't get stuck on the boot screen, but its stuck on the animation logo which is an improvement
thanks again

[Q] whats this? i9001 bricked, damaged partition? cant wipe data, do factory reset.

Hi people,
i dont know where to go! i have read dozen of sites and post... am i right here?
my S+ i9001
PDA i9001xxkq7
Phone: i9001xxkpk
csc i9001dbtkp2
can:
boot in download mode
can boot recovery mode
can be flashed via odin
can NOT:
-boot to system (always hang or freeeze or shuts down when Samsung logo comes)
-data can not be wiped (Processbar starts but never really start doing something) CWM6. I had some other recoverys and they gave me some messages like can not accsess data/csc or something like these messages in other posts.
-can not do anything in recoverymode exepted, wipe cache.
-can not update zip
-can not gain accsess to sdcard ore sideby
-cant reboot in recovery.
i flashed with odin (and Aries.ops):
-broodROM_RC5
-the right StockROM
-phone seems to be bricked
-no access with Quickflash (dont know if debug mode was or is enabled)
i found some people with similar problems with other devices (i9000 // i9100), but not with the i9001. so i write it here.
always the answer was try a full wipe/reset, but i cant or dont know how to it when the recoverymod or stock recovery doesnt do it.
kind regards
Daniel

I9001 cant format data and emmc
Update,
i finally got an CWM running! aktually 5.5.0.4 but the 6.0.1 and 6.0.2 alsoworked at the end.
now all i cant do is, formatting data and/or mount/format emmc.
Plugged in via USB Cable to PC i can access (internal) sdcard and copy all zips i want. I also cann install them, but i cant wipe data.
i geuss there is an hardware issue, so that all these fine mods are biting on stone, trying to format the "partition"
This results in unbootable systems..i think
At least i tried cm-9-20130220-EXPERIMENTAL-ariesve-rc5 with kernel 3.00, no luck.
i this hardbricked? damaged? i geuss im close to the final. but wich one.....
last try is this hint :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173180

thanks for reading!

...
tried to reduce the i9001reset.tar.md5 file with repacking it without the cache and system file. but the reset.zip still has 750mb and odin crashes checking the md5.
are there any other methods to check if the data partition or the emmc.ic is damaged? i cant format via CWM or stock recovery, results in endless process...
and Quickflasher also crashed trying to "wipe at start" mmcblk0p17 (data)

yes, i tried but it did not work, neither from stock or custom ROM.

I'm having the exact same problems. It all started when I updated CWM to 6.0.2.8 as recomended by ivendor, in order to flash CM10. Since then I can't wipe data partition, and no matter what I flash (through both Odin and CWM), the phone doesn't boot anymore. Tried to restore original Samsung ROM, no success... Hasn't anyone figure it out? It seems a large number of user have dealt with this issue in the last days, perhaps the coder of CWM 6.0.2.8 should explain how to fix this mess.
I went to a local phone service, and they said they can't do anything, the whole internal memory has to be replaced. I can't believe this.

No solution?
I have exectly the same problem and i tried everything. I still can get to recovery and download mode, because i didnt mess with reseting broken partition. Can this be solved? I didnt find anyhing in threads, and it seems that a lot of people have this kind of problem now. It all happend on my s+ while i was trying to flash CM10 Beta4.

I managed to "rescue" my eMMC-bricked phone by doing everything I could find about the eMMC brick bug killed my i9001. No root but I can live with that until someone comes up with a better fix.. Good luck, I wish I had a better step by step instruction list on how I did it but honestly I just frantically tried things over and over in different order and finally got it going.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2234489
I guess...
1. Get TWRP 2.2.2.1 or CWM 5.5.0.4/the new 2.6-based 6.0.2.8 CWM recovery flashed.
2. Use QuickWipe (link in my post to the OP).
3. Use ODIN 4.43 to flash that 1.4GB fixmev2.tar file (I did it at least 2-3 times during different stages)
4. Follow the instructions in the links in my post.
5. Good luck.
6. Wait for the devs to solve this problem permanently with new kernels and ROMs and thank them when they solve it.

Restore your backup.

Even hard reset (Volume down + Home + Power buttons at the same time. ) does'nt works now. i keep getting the loading logo.

It seems you are new to android, custom ROM, recovery etc. and this indicate you haven't took nandroid backup of your ROM to restore it later... Now what you can try is, go to stock recovery with pressing phone buttons combination ( google it according to your phone model ) and do factory reset (warning- it will wipe all your data but may set your phone to boot and work ) ..at least try it when nothing is working

I almost bricked my Samsung G5 (the ATT version with the screwy locked bootloader, I think?) almost this exact same way about two years ago. It took a bit with ODIN and some time on the forums here, but eventually I got it working again. Not fun but I am glad everything worked out for you as well.
To be honest I learned more successfully trying to unbrick that phone than I ever would have had I not royally effed up....

bootloop,no recovery can be installed from odin

i'll make it short
One night,i've used my phone,and before going to sleep(phone still working),i left it to charge.(That's at about 11pm).The morning i wake up,phone cannot boot in recovery nor in download.It was like dead.But i have left it to charge for some hours then charging animation came back,then phone could boot again,including download mode but not recovery(linegeos 14.1).Until today,i have tried to flash custom recovery,stock recovery,wipe file to wipe data and cache,tried to install cm12.1,but none of them worked,still stuck on bootloop.If i recall,the night i used my phone last,i tried to use lucky patcher to get unlimited coins on dream league,but with play protect,they warned me that google would give warning,but i did not do anything.After all the flashes including recovery and the rom that failed,i ticked the nand erase in odin but seems like nothing changed.And now i'm out of options,if someone could really help me please,this is the only phone i've got.Phone can boot fine,but not in recovery and it will not install idk why,please help me...
something i've seen in download is that after flashing recovery or wiping data,in the place of current binary,it writes something like sdcard write status:2(7) or something like that.

does any of you know the problem?

no answer?
pls help me

i have the same problem is so sad

so there's no fix?

I have the exact same problem in my i8190, despite of being totally stock. I'm trying to flash stock rom, stock recovery, custom recovery, custom rom, something... and nothing happens, Odin says PASS but it seems to be like there is no memory to write on. I'm thinking it could be some hardware issue :'(

then there's nothing to do...
so sad

Hi everyone, I am having a similar problem. Last month I have tried to install novafusion RR distribution to s3 minI because it was rebooting all the time, but since I didn't liked it I went back to the original firmware. A few days ago my cell died, it wasn't turning on. The guy in the repair shop told me it wasn't the battery... the nextday it was turning on, buy keep rebooting. I bought a new original battery, charged it but still the same problem.
I tried to install twrp and central recovery via Odin but nothing works, it freezes on the "Samsung Galaxy s3 mini" or it reboot..
I would like to know if there is something that I can do, because I want to backup some contacts that were saved in the phone memory, sms and the last whatsapp chat, for some reason the last automatic one is from january...
Any ideas?
